““Did you never observe the narrow intelligence flashing from the keen eye of a clever rogue—how eager he is, how clearly his paltry soul sees the way to his end; he is the reverse of blind, but his keen eye-sight is forced into the service of evil, and he is mischievous in proportion to his cleverness?””
Republic • Plato“All Russia is our orchard.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov“Do not shorten the morning by getting up late, or waste it in unworthy occupations or in talk; look upon it as the quintessence of life, as to a certain extent sacred. Evening is like old age: we are languid, talkative, silly. Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.”
Counsels and Maxims • Arthur Schopenhauer“I should think that for one who has tasted the joys of creation, no other pleasure could exist.”
Seagull • Anton Chekhov““He alone knew something that even initiates didn’t know how easy it was to fast.” ”
A Hunger Artist • Franz Kafka
